Is it you, or is it me ?

RFID in new zealand passed a new milestone when RFID tags were mentioned on "Shortland Street" - http://tvnz.co.nz/shortland-street-episodes/happened-wednesday-2758512
"TK is disturbed by the strange microchip he finds in Jeff's skin, which he identifies as a pet identification advice. When Jeff reveals his wife is a vet, TK is certain something sinister is going on. " I won't spoil the plot but the RFID tag is not the villan of the piece.

Twitter and RFID

Linking twitter and the real world - http://www.switched.com/2009/04/06/twitter-enabled-cat-door-tweets-a-kittys-comings-and-goings/
a twitter enabled RFID catflap is obviously a bit silly, but this may be one of the solutions to data management for RFID. As H1N1 appears to be becoming pandemic, maybe linking the movement of people and contacts as measured by RFID to twitter is a sensible approach...
More web 2.0 stuff..
